As we’ve seen during the Trump presidencies, it doesn’t matter who is in the majority in congress. Nothing substantial that Trump ran on has been codified. Nothing.

Yep, and since very few ships have their transponders on, they are not listed as traveling through the strait......conveniently reported by the press.

Any idiot can look at global oil prices and realize this.

Yes, pointing out the laziness in others is helpful.

The main purpose of CNN and the NYTimes reporting this is probably to make sure Iran knows about it.

But what does any of that have to do with Iran clearly not owning the Strait like you hamas bros claim


They control enough it that 3/4 of pre-conflict traffic is not going through Hormuz.

Also, you’re being a clown with the “hamas bros” bullshite you toss at anyone who disagrees with the unreality you seem to live in. Have fun with your message board semantic games. Live your own truth as a lib would say!

There's about 10 million barrels of oil a day going through the strait & Iran still isn't getting shite in or out. The oil flow isn't what it was prior to hostilities, but to say Iran controls the strait is absurd.

Besides, they are only reporting on what they know. More is getting through than is being reported.

Have we taken Kharg yet as you predicted


No we havent. And thats an epic fail

No it’s not. Taking Kharg would be the height of stupidity. It would allow us to throttle Iranian oil production…which is already throttled. So we’d lose lives for nothing.
